True:  The Declaration of Independence speaks of a Divine Creator.

True:  The Declaration of the Rights of Man speaks of a Supreme Being.

True:  Both documents drew on the natural law philosophy of John Locke.


Some additional details about the "Divine Creator" and "Supreme Being" distinction:

The Declaration of Independence (1776) famously asserted, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."  America's founding fathers tended to speak in religious terms associated with the Christian tradition, even though a number of them were more like Deists in their own beliefs.  Deists believe that there is a God who created the world, but set it up to run by natural laws and did not intervene in a personal way in its operation.

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen (1789) was less overt in ascribing the rights of human beings to God as Creator.  That declaration of the French Revolution stated, "The National Assembly recognizes and proclaims, in the presence and under the auspices of the Supreme Being, the following rights of man and of the citizen."  They were taking using more overtly Deist language, acknowledging a Supreme Being that was the reasonable force governing all things, but seeing human beings in society granting rights according to the actions of a just government.

Which is true of the 1912 presidential election?
sveticcg [70]
The correct answer is A) Because all three candidates were Progressive, Progressive votes were split.

The election of 1912 was between Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, and William Howard Taft. All three of these individuals were progressives, even though Wilson technically in the Democratic party and Taft was part of the Republican party. This was a time period in which progressive ideas were extremely popular in all major political parties. Due to this fact, the progressive voters were torn on which candidate to pick.

Do you believe that most Americans would be willing
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Yes, most definitely. Food is a necessity for everyone, not just Americans, and most if not all people would conserve it if the circumstance needed them to. And energy? For us being Americans, we feel as though we need energy, it fuels every aspect of our everyday lives in a way, so yes. I sure would make sacrifices for both.
